Used 2018 Kia Forte LX S EX

The 2018 Kia Forte LX is the 'hidden gem' of the compact sedan world. While other cars in its class can feel cramped or basic, the Forte was designed to feel like a scaled-down European sport sedan. 2018 was a standout year for this generation, benefiting from a suspension retuning that made it one of the quietest and smoothest-riding small cars on the market. With just 68,000 miles, this LX model has been driven well below the average for its age, meaning its interior and mechanicals still have that tight, responsive feel that Kia is famous for. Under the hood, you'll find a refined 2.0L 4-cylinder engine producing 147 horsepower. It's paired with a smooth 6-speed automatic transmission—a welcome feature for Tacoma drivers who prefer the traditional, stepped-gear feel over a CVT. This powertrain is a master of the daily grind, achieving an impressive 37 MPG on the highway. Whether you're heading north to Seattle or just navigating the lights on South Tacoma Way, the Forte delivers a punchy, agile performance while keeping your fuel stops few and far between. The LX trim is all about 'the essentials done right.' Inside, the cabin features high-quality soft-touch materials and a driver-centric cockpit that feels surprisingly premium. You'll enjoy standard features like Bluetooth Wireless Technology, steering-wheel-mounted audio controls, and SiriusXM Satellite Radio. One of the Forte's best-kept secrets is its Projector Beam Headlights with Auto Light Control, which provide exceptional visibility during those dark, rainy Pacific Northwest evenings. Plus, with its spacious 14.9 cubic foot trunk, you have more than enough room for a major grocery run or a weekend's worth of camping gear for a trip to the Peninsula. Visit us at All American Motors on South Tacoma Way to see why the 2018 Kia Forte LX is the ultimate blend of style and efficiency.
